Controlling Sub Reports Visibility
Nov 29, 2007
Hi
I have a main report and wanted to embed a sub report in the main table. This is pretty easy enough.
The main report lists the suppliers we have. And the sub report lists any sub suppliers affialiated to those suppliers.
I have set the sub report visibility settings to hidden and is toggled by the suppliers ID.
The problem is that NOT ALL suppliers will have sub-suppliers, yet when you run the report the user gets presented with the option to toggle all suppliers' ID.
Is there any way to have a main report that only allows the user to click on a suppliers ID when that particular supplier has a sub supplier?

VS2005/SSR2005 Reporting: How can one control an individual report fields visibility (toggle on/off) at run time, based on data values (of the same field or another field) in the report. Without user having to sit there and "Click".
Thanks

Hello,
I'm using SSRS 2005
I'm trying to write an expression for the "Hidden" property of a column in a table. The column is only populated with data if the group on my table is open. If the group is collapsed, then the column is empty. I'd like to make the column hidden if the group is collapsed. So I'm thinking it would be something like this:
=Iif(Table_1_Group.Hidden = "True", "True", "False")
But I can't find anyone who has written this anywhere.
I'm basically trying to make this report do the same thing a matrix does, but the matrix doesn't let me label the columns. I put textboxes above the matrix in line with the columns, but when I deploy the report to ReportManager, the textboxes get thrown all over the place and don't line up with the columns anymore.
So I guess if you can't answer the first question, an alternate question I have is how are you supposed to label the columns (row groups) in your matrix? They don't have headers, if I try to line textboxes up with them they get all messed up during deployment. They have that textbox up there in the top left corner that runs across the top of all of the row group columns, but if I put labels separated spaces in that textbox, the spaces get removed in rendering so the text is pushed all to the left and doesn't line up anymore.
Thanks,
Andy

I have windows application (Basically a accounting system). I want to use either SQL authenticaion, or Windows authentication for my users of the application (Basically each db user will have their own account in Users for that db, so I can have sql control the access).
All access to the db is via stored procedures, but I want to have a set schema for each user type:
Supervisor
Manager
Data Entry
etc.
All with a predefined access to the proper stored procedures(So far fairly simple).
In addition to this I want to be able to set the specifics of that user in my .net application via a interface (so a user by default will have the pre-defined schema, when a supervisor opens this interface, they can add/remove access to other stored procedures)
Here's the issue. Is this the proper methodology to achieve this, because it's quite of bit of programming work. I don't want to do it then need to re-due everything.
Also should I use Windows Authentication, or SQL, or have a completly seperate table in the DB where I do manual authentication then have the .net application restrict the access?
Any help or comments on this approach will be helpful. Also ifanyone has found any articles or information similiar to what I am trying to accomplish, please point me in the correct direction.
Thanks.

Hello,
I have a sequence problem in a package and I'm unable to figure it out: I have a control flow with some elements in this specified order: a script task -> Execute SQL task -> Data Flow. The script task is responsible for setting a value on a package variable; this same variable will then be used to decide if the Data Flow is disabled or not (there's an expression on the DataFlow). However, it looks like the variable is being tested before the script actually writes it, how can I guarantee that the DataFlow's expression is evaluated only after the script task has ended? Also, I have tried putting each component inside their own sequence container and I get the same result
Thanks in advance

Folks,
Our client has requested that we change the export file name (PDF and others) to match the report name. Currently, the name is based on the report's filename (eg, foo.rdl exports as foo.pdf) -- this causes problems because the same RDL is being used for a few fairly different reports. Is this controllable at all?
thanks,

Hi everyone:
I need to use the "SET ROWCOUNT" statement to limit the amount of data returned to the application in a query, I know that if "SET ROWCOUNT = 0" is not specified at the end of this stored proc all the next queries will return only the amount of records specified in the initial "SET ROWCOUNT" call, so I would like to know if a I can have something like the TRY-CATCH-FINALLY statement (in SQL-92 for SQL Server 2000, not in SQL 2005) to make sure the "SET ROWCOUNT = 0" is sent at the end even if an error is raised.
Can it be done?
Thanks for any help.

Hi,I'm writing an application that involves data that has a set of usersthat are allowed to perform certain operations on it.i.e. Only the row owner can modify a row, but there is a set of userswho can view it.At the moment, I've started to implement this by calling a UDF at thebeginning of each stored procedure that validates that the user isallowed to call the procedure on that particular row (trusting a higherteir to verify the user), and throws an error if they are not.I don't particularly like this solution, as I need a UDF for eachprocedure, and will have to re-write the udf's if the access ruleschange (which they might).Can anyone suggest a method of implementing a more generic rowpermissions system?Cheers,Ben

Hi All,
We have an odd OLE DB error here. We can create the connection but only lookup a handfull of tables that are in the database. (Maybe only 10 of 50 - of which I need the ones not being displayed) Even if I choose a table from the incomplete list and try and close the dialog I get the following error. We are trying to pull data from an IBM AS400 if that makes any difference. It did work in SQL2000 - Hope you can help us!!!

I have a problem at the company I work for. For historic reasons many developers and users know the sa passwords for SQL. Obviously this is not a good situtation to be in. Now the obvious answer it to just change this but for reasons unknown to sanity half of our applications are hardcoded to use sa passwords.
Now as a DBA coming into this this puts me in a tricky position as its impossible for me to control who is doing what etc. Is it possible to put triggers or something to monitor logins which will deny access to anyone accessing via the sa password not through an application. Ie if an application calls then the sa will have to be allowed but if a user using Query Analyser for example tries to use sa then they are denied access ?
Long term all these passwords are going to change but it the short term I still need to create some control on the system. Anyone have any thoughts ?

I have a few hundred data files that I need to process in groups from oldest to most recent. To that end, I have created staging folders for each date that appears in the file names (example: 20060213) and moved all of the data files to the appropriate folders.
I also have these folder names in a recordset that has been sorted in ascending order, so the oldest date should be the first record, the second-oldest date should be second and so on. My thinking is to use this recordset with a ForEach Loop Container to loop through each folder, but I am not sure if Integration Services will necessarily loop through the records in order.
Can someone tell me whether the records will be processed in order or suggest a better alternative to make sure the directories are processed in the correct order?

I have a one table with 30-second updates for many day's worth of data. What I'd like to do is only select out the datetime between, say 07:00:00.000 and 11:00:00.000 for each day.
select * from TableName where "timestamp"
between '2007-06-04 07:00:00.000' and '2007-06-04 11:00:00.000'
This works for one specific day. But I'd like a return of values for all possible days in the table (as opposed to just 2007-06-04).

Hey Folks!
I have a typical requirement by my client. On submitting a Update (Bulk) button a huge database operation starts. A huge bulk update operation need to be performed. This would take 2-3 minutes some times. Client wants a cancel button in this case where he can be given a way to cancel the database Transaction.
Please let me know in case if there is a way out.
Thanks, in advance.

Hi to allI wish to be able to have a standard select statement which hasadditional fields added to it at run-time based on suppliedparameter(s).iedeclare @theTest1 nvarchar(10)set @theTest1='TRUE'declare @theTest2 nvarchar(10)set @theTest2='TRUE'selectp_full_nameif @theTest1='TRUE'BEGINother field1,ENDif @theTest2='TRUE'BEGINother field2ENDfrom dbo.tbl_GIS_personwhere record_id < 20I do not wish to use an IF statement to test the parameter for acondition and then repeat the entire select statement particularly asit is a UNIONed query for three different statementiedeclare @theTest1 nvarchar(10)set @theTest1='TRUE'declare @theTest2 nvarchar(10)set @theTest2='TRUE'if @theTest1='TRUE' AND @theTest2='TRUE'BEGINselectp_full_name,other field1,other field2from dbo.tbl_GIS_personwhere record_id < 20ENDif @theTest1='TRUE' AND @theTest2='FALSE'BEGINselectp_full_name,other field1from dbo.tbl_GIS_personwhere record_id < 20END......if @theTest<>'TRUE'BEGINselectp_full_namefrom dbo.tbl_GIS_personwhere record_id < 20ENDMake sense? So the select is standard in the most part but with smallvariations depending on the user's choice. I want to avoid risk ofbreakage by having only one spot that the FROM, JOIN and WHEREstatements need to be defined.The query will end up being used in an XML template query.Any help would be much appreciatedRegardsGIS Analyst

A similar question has been asked in a different thread, but didn't get a conclusive answer. Is there a way to set process priority on a specific process (alternatively - processes started by a specific user), similar to what the Task Manager allows in Windows?
I need to archive some data from an OLTP database. Unfortunately, some of the tables are growing rather large, and copying the data, and especially removing it based on record age, is a resource-intensive operation. My database must be available 24/7, and I can't have queries timing out, or I start losing business real fast. I was thinking of firing off the archive script and setting the process priority on it to something lower than normal, so it won't interfere with my OLTP processes.
Maybe someone can suggest a better solution?

I have a report I'm trying to modify for a client that has two auto-grow tablix. We want the second tablix to start after the first one completes, however the first tablix will overwrite the second one if it contains multiple rows, rather than pushing it down. How can I control this?

I'm using Reporting Services 2000 and I have a situation where I need to specify the file formats available to export. I know I can change the RSReportServer.config file to change these at a global level, but what I really need is to be able to configure these differently for different user groups. For example:
group 1 - has all available export formats available
group 2 - only has the ability to export to excel
group 3 - has no option to export to any format.
Is there a way for this to be done? If so, can anybody give me any pointers on how it can be done?
Any help given will be most appreciated!!

Hello everyone,
This is a new level of complexity for me..
The Boss wants..
1. To control an SSIS package , start, check status, and emergency stop + rollback a package from a web page. Does anyone know of an example or good articles to start with.
2. I have one of the iterations of the data invoke and use a COM object (third party) It will value the items and change a field.
I can always do #2 as a second step but I need all the help I can get on #1.
Thank you,

Is there a way to control SSIS 2014 package execution schedule. I have 8 different packages that I have to schedule for this project and these packages need to be executed only when the data is available on the source for the package to grab. So the idea we are banking on is to create a Control table with package execution flag and when the flag is set to yes for a package that will be executed via SQL Server agent. How would I accomplish this?

Hi,
I have a matrix in which there are 7 columns.I need to control visibility of a column based on the prompt values provided.
For example:
If prompt values are Act,Ban,Mag then only these column data should come up if i do not select any of these then they should not show up.
Thanks.

Hi,
I'm running the following query in SQL Server 2005:
select name from master..syslogins;
It is being executed from within a stored procedure.
For user 'sa' - I get the complete list of users.
For a user (say 'user1') with NO sysadmin privilege - I get only two names: 'sa' and 'user1'
Is there a way for me to retrieve the complete list of users even for 'user1' without making any changes to his profile (or making very MINIMAL changes to profile)?
I don't want to give sysadmin profile to this user.
I know 'GRANT VIEW ANY DEFINITION TO public' works, but don't want to do that either.

I want to control the visibility of the report bases on if certain columns have the data or not. Since our DB can accept EMPTY strings. I need to check for both NULLs and EMPTY STRINGS.
I have writen the following VB function
Public Function IsEmpty(ByVal value As Object) As Boolean
If IsNothing(value) Then
Return true
Else If(value.ToString().Length = 0)
Return true
End If
Return false
End Function
In the "visibility" expression window I have the following
=(Code.IsEmpty(Fields!COLUMN1.Value)) and (Code.IsEmpty(Fields!COLUMN2)) and (Code.IsEmpty(Fields!COLUMN3))
But it doesn't seems to be working? Any help?

Hello SQL Server Experts, Data Analysts, and Report Writers et al:
re: Reporting Options with SQL Server
I wanted to propose an offshoot to the pryor thread:
Would anyone take a stab at comparing Access Reports, Crystal Reports,
Cognos or other options to all the Reporting Services and its components offered as part ofSQL Server, especially as to extracting data from SQL Server into a report format?
I guess this is a far as capabilites, ease of use, limitations, and especially formatting
or presentation of the end report product?
Thank you to all, and I hope this is a beneficial discussion to others.

I have an already published application running several MS SQL Server 2000 Reporting Services report.
I need a way to find from either the reporting services log or the application server (IIS) logs or windows log
to know the frequency of each report being used.
Based on this info, the business needs to know which reports are being used and to what extend?
How can I acheive this?
I have already got the IIS logs and it did not give the required info.
I have looked into the Reporting Services logs but it does not provide the info either.
Any help is appreciated

Hi,
Using RAISERROR from within a stored prcedure will result in a SQLException being thrown at the client side of a JDBC connection.
I am trying to provide a meaningfull error message to be shown to the end user. However, all exceptions thrown will inevitably start with : "[Microsoft][SQLServer 2000 Driver for JDBC][SQLServer]". The following questions then arise :
- Is there a way of configuring SQL Server not to display this header ?
alternatively,
- Is there another way of conveying error messages to the client through JDBC ?
Thank you for your answers,
Ben

We're working on a new release of a software.In the existing version, each client connects and executes a long batch ofanalysis on some tables.In the new release, we need to allow each client to execute analysis on asubset of data, according to certain login information.Our idea is:1) Connection to db2) Creation of one View according to restrictions3) Execution of analysis using just created view and some tables.The problem is that executingcreate view myvista asselect * from tb_data where testo='A1'from two different clients, creates just one view.Question: Does it exist a way of creating a VIEW with a connection scope,something like 'select into ##temptable'?We tried Create View #MyVista or ##Myvista, but this name is not accepted.Alternative way, is creating a ##TempTable, at the beginning of the batch,and using it as data source instead of full table, but, due to really hugeamount of data, this could really disturb server performances.Thanks for any helpAlberto
